Record $3.2 billion inflows into Bitcoin funds signal new safe-haven status

Crypto-related investment products recorded $3.4 billion in inflows last week, marking the most significant weekly inflow since mid-December 2024 and the third-highest on record, according to CoinShares‘ latest report.

James Butterfill, Head of Research at CoinShares, linked the surge to growing concerns about the weakening US dollar and fears over tariff-related impacts on corporate earnings.

He noted that this inflow shows investors increasingly turn to digital assets as safe-haven options amid global economic uncertainty.

US Bitcoin products pull over $3 billion in inflow

According to CoinShares, Bitcoin investment products accounted for nearly 94% of last week’s total inflows.

This is evidenced by the fact that US-based spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) products registered their strongest week since Donald Trump returned to the White House in January.

Collectively, Bitcoin ETFs attracted over $3 billion in inflows, with BlackRock’s IBIT leading the way by securing more than half of the new funds.

Meanwhile, the wave of new investments pushed the total assets under management for Bitcoin-relayed products to $132 billion, a milestone not seen since February 2025.

Market analysts suggest that the inflow reflects Bitcoin’s growing independence from traditional risk assets like US equities, and gold has strengthened its appeal as a safe-haven asset.

Reflecting this momentum, Bitcoin’s price surged by over 8% last week to reach $94,682 at press time, according to data from CryptoSlate.

Ethereum reverses negative trend

Ethereum also reversed its recent trend of outflows, attracting $183 million in new investments. This marks the end of an eight-week streak of negative sentiment that significantly impacted the second-largest crypto asset by market cap.

Despite this new capital inflow, Ethereum’s price remains below the critical $2,000 threshold. ETH is trading at around $1,806 as of press time, up 10% over the past week.

Other altcoins recorded smaller yet notable inflows. XRP and Sui saw $31.6 million and $20.7 million in new investments, respectively.

However, not all assets benefited from the positive market momentum. Solana was the only major altcoin to experience an outflow, losing $5.7 million in investments during the period.

Nonetheless, the broader inflow trend reflects strengthening investor confidence in digital assets, even as traditional markets face uncertainty.
